Wax

Holly went to spin class last night while Lilly and I went to Target and to Pioneer Midwest's progressive sale (currently 30% off). I wanted some nice gloves (recommended by Dave "You look like you could use some water" Hoglund). You know those gloves gotta be fast. It was time to replace the mittens I've had since high school.

I also needed wax. And seeing as the race is this weekend I thought I'd try some higher-dollar stuff instead of the $10 "economy" wax I normally use. I was a little disappointed they were sold out of the stuff I was going to buy - that is until I figured out it would have been $50! For half the amount I get for $10. Wow. I have visions of putting $75 worth of wax on my skis only to wear it off skiing from the porta-potty to start line.

I ran with the guys at lunch. This was Todd's 10th run of the year.

Johnny.. you must be gettin' "nervous" with the big show just around the corner.
Did you get those magic gloves? (I could use another pair... waiting for the 50% deal) Stay hydrated!
